| TRAIL RIDING POPULAR 
IN CANADA'S |’ 
"., NATIONAL PARKS 


“Modern: transportation facilities 
have brought many of Canada’s 
national parks to within a few 
days’ or hours’ travel of large Ca- 
Ge 4 nadian and Americ2n cities. Most 
Hee people desire to get» back to the 
simple life, to the sound of the 
brook, to the Jake shore and the 
‘mountains, The cali of the great 
‘outdoors is a yearly urge which 
permeates. every ‘office, mine, fac- 
tory and ‘workshop, and lingers 
throug}, the night at every house- 
hold. window. There are many 
different ways in which this annual 
yearning. for life in- the open may 
—be -satisfied.Trail. riding, -in-Can- 
ada! s national parks is one "of them. ;

popular that in 1924 the Trail 
Riders“of the Canadian Rockies 
was formed. It is a\Canadian so- 
ciety wit, cosmopolitan member- 
ship. The 28rd annual gathering of 
this unique organization was held 
in July of this year in Windy 
Camp Country, at the junction of | 
Panther and Wigmore Oréeks, 
north of Banff, which is one of the 
best wildlife aieas in the - park. 
Trips to such places as Snow 
Creek, Harrison Lake, Panther 
River, the marvellous. Red Deer 
Walley, and Cascade Asan tei were 
feature attractions. 


’In this park there are nearly a 
thousand miles of well-kept trails 
leading to dazzling glaciers, green 
valleys, bright flowers, glistening

est. Lofty snow-capped mountain 
peaks, and glaciers’ which reach 
down almost to the roadside and 
melt away in -flowered bedecked 
valleys, lend enchantment to the 
scene. Mountain sheep, which many 
people believe are shy, cross and 
recross one’s trail. It is a veritable 
paradise for the amateur photog 
rapher and many a snapshot album 
is adorned wit}, pictures of wildlife 
in this great natural museum. 

In recent years Yoho*and Koote- 
nay National« Parks in British 
Columbia have also become popu- 
lar areas for this exciting and ad- 
venturous pastime. The ardent trail 
‘vider may prefer the longer rides, 
but there are many interesting 
short \ rides for beginners. For 
them, a trip around ‘the Bungalow 
Camps in’ Yoho._National. Park 
starting from Yoho, Wapta, Lake 
O’Hara, or from’ Emerald Lake 
Chalet, would have a special ap- 
peal. For sheer beauty the Yoho 
Valley is unsurpassed. Takakkaw 
Falls, moré than 1,500 feet in 
height, The Angel’s Stairs, Laugh- 
ing Falls, Yoho Glacier, or gigan- 
tic mountains such as McArthur, 
Cathedral, Stephen and Vice-Presi- 
dent, sometimes cal’ed “Guardians 
of the Valley,” provide breath-tak- 
ing scenes. :

Time lost due to strikes and lock- 
outs in Canada-during the first five 
months of 1946 was greater by over 
600,000 man-days, it was announced 
today. by. the Hon. Humphrey 
Mitchell, minister of labor. 

Time lost during May, 1946, ac- 
counted for a great part of this in- 
crease, being 82 percent of all time 
lost due to industrial strife during 
the first five months of this year. 
Whis was due mainly to the strike 
of 37,000 loggers and woodworkers 
in. British Columbia, whic, began 
May 15, and. is now terminated, 
work being resumed pending settle- 
ment of the dispute. 

Strike figures for the first five 
months of 1946 show 92 strikes, in- 
volving 61,866 workers and causing 
a time. loss of 691,108 man-days.

The employment picture is also

9,750 to 18,587. For a similar period 
ending May 16, the figures rose to 
16,423, and as at June 13, the total 
had mounted to 18,327, 

Another indication of the ‘im- 
proved employment picture is re- 


there were fewer new applications 
for unemployment insurance bene-.‘ 
fit than there were during April, 
The total number of persons sign-"

Interplanetary Travel Claimed To Be

‘its jet-propelled, pilotless aircraft. 
From this research the Navy will 
learn a lot about the interplanetary 
system. 

“Then, a little. farther in the fu- 
ture, are satellite vehicles, circling 
the earth hundreds of miles up, like 
moons”, a Navy statement said. 
“Interplanetary travel, in case some- 
one feels the urge to visit far places, 
is only a short step from the satellite 
vehicle.” 

The forecast is’ contained in a re- 
view, of the Navy’s guided missile 
program. One of the weapons of this 
type under development is a pilotless 
aircraft that is*sent into the air to

Wil! Demand 
Free Elections 
For Poland 


- LONDON .—The foreign office said 
that the British government was pre- 
pared to apply’ economic sanctions to 
Poland if the Warsaw regime failed 
to carry out the’Potsdam agreement |‘ 
for free and unfettered elections in 
that country this fall. 

.A. foreign office spokesman said 
Britain would refuse to return Po- 
Jand’s gold reserves, brought here by 
the wartime exiled government, if 
election provisions sketched in Anglo- 
American notes to Warsaw were not 
observed, | 

“The first and most obvious sanc- 
tion, in the event the. grave irrégu- 
larities of the recent referendum also 
take place during the promised elec- 
tion, would be for us to refuge to 
ratify the recent economic agree- 
ment providing for the return of the 
Polish gold reserve after deduction 
of the expenses of the exile govern- 
ment while in London,” the spokes- 


~ man said.

Polish government of ignoring the 
agreement for free elections in

~ World Shortage 
__Of Bread Is 
Expected Soon 


i GENEVA Save —A_,possible world 
shortage of 8,000,000 metric tons of 
bread cereals for the winter of 1946- 

. 47 was foreseen in an address here by 
George R. Paterson, Canadian mem- 
ber of the international emergency 
food council’s central committee, 

Mr. Paterson, counsellor on. agri- 
cultural affairs to te Canadian em- 
bassy in Washington, D.C., told the 
Canadian Institute of Public Affairs 
that even if this shortage does not 
occur, requirements to bring many 
‘people to pre-war dietary levels will, 
not be fulfilled. ~~“ 

Solution ‘of the problem was not 


only to provide enough food to meet 


the shortages but to cope with the 


factors which bring great shortages 


in many heavily populated areas and 


starvation areas to buy from the 
world’s available supplies. 


‘Mr. Paterson estimated the de-| 


ficient areas would require, in the 
1946-47 season, 30,000,000 metric tons 
of bread grains. 
“This vast amount, even if it could 
be made available and financed, 
_ would still leave unsatisfled the re- 
quirements needed to return many 
people to the pre-war dietary level,” 
he said. + 
. “The requirements of other im- 
portant food items will also*continue 
to remain incapable of fulfillment

In an address prepared for de-

Mr. Taylor said “Canada probably 
came as close as any country,. and 
closer than most, to achieving a total

Reviewing Canada’s food program 
and policy, he termed “a remarkable 
achievement” the increase over pre- 
war production averages of wheat by

CHURCHILL; ta — The huge 
United States army and air base 


erected here during the war may” 


become a permanent Canadian army 
ibase. This was the information 
gleaned during a visit to the camp. 
The Canadian army will carry out a 
more. extensive Muskox expedition 
; next winter and will likely be joined 
}by a force of American soldiers in 
these operations. f 

At the present time 100 Canadian 
soldiers are camped in the almost 
deserted. American huts. No Ameri- 
cans are now here. The Canadian 
army men are carrying out tests with 
summer vehicles and one officer told 
tourists, onthe annual Churchill -ex- 
cursion, that some of the vehicleg 
were of the secret type. 

A huge tank seemed to be the 
jcentre of the most interest. The 
vehicles under test included an ame 
phibious duck which was used to 


‘transport’ the tourists across thé” ~~. 


harbor to old fort Prince of Wales. 

To the 200 or more American 
tourists the big camp was a great 
surprise, Few had ever heard of it 
and there was great wonderment as 
to why Uncle Sam had built such an 
elaborate camp so far away from 
the American border. Fear of an 
invasion by Germany through the 
Hudson Bay was generally gia pee 
by the tourists as the chief reaso 
for the camp. 

United States spent huge. sums of 
money on the camp, It is located 
-from—three—to—four—miles—from— 
town and was erected on part rock 
and part-muskeg land. Hundreds of 
tons of gravel were hauled in to level 
up the ground and the air strips built 
up at least 20 or more feet. The 
runways are of course hard sur+ 
faced. The military camp is about. 
half a mile away from the hangars. 

More than 3,000 American soldiers: 


only had a small-number of perma- 


bases in the far north. ' 

The camp is electric lighted, <A’ 
power plant with two dynamos, oné 
developing 500 horsepower and the 
other 300, is still in operation. A big 
icture show whieh would seat over

A Free Port 


_No. Port Must Be Subsidized Without 


_ how that magic key to freer 
- commerce—the .free port—applies to 
Canada’s ocean gateways in these 
days of growing exports and a gen- 
eral disposition to Knock down world 
trade barriers is not widely appar- 


<9) @nts: 


But. some ports—notably Quebec, 
, Halifax and Saint John, N:B.—have 
gone on record as supporting the 
idea. Others, such as Montreal, 
Vancouver and Victoria have _ex- 
' pressed a keen interest and, trans- 
port Minister Chevrier announced in 
the Commons the other day that an 
: inter-departmental committee headed 
, by Emile St; Laurent, vice-chairman 
of the National Harbor Boards, is 
studying briefs from several of the 


next session of Parliament, 


Meanwhile, Quebec has taken the 
lead in the agitation and is shower- 
ing‘ parliamentarians and. trade 
boards throughout the country with 
dodgers urging establishment of a 
free zone near the old citadel. 

» While not so vocal, Halifax. and 
Saint John also have made bids, the 
. two. Maritime ports have introduced 
- a rivalry into the issue by coming out 
for year-round open ports—an argu- 
mefft which would rule out Quebec 
harbor, closed during winter months, 

Gordon Isnor, Liberal member for 
Halifax, who has been following the 
question closely for twe years, has 
emphasized this point. He said:— 

* “Tf we are to have legislation on 
this matter it must apply to all ports 
of Canada. No port must. be sub- 
sidized which. cannot _ proyide — the 
‘facilities* for continuous year-round 
“service, If certain ports were used 
as free ports and were not open all 
the year it might mean that: goods 


and brought in bond to designated 
Canadian free, port zones and this 
certainly would not be desirable with 
ice-free ports available.” 
A free port, in short, is an en- 
- closure in a protected country in 
. Which the freedom from customs re- 
strictions allowed is valid only as 
long as the goods concerned are in 
storage therein, or are moving into 
foreign and not into home markets. 
Free ports now are in operation in 
New York and New Orleans in the 
.United States where there are no 
comparable regulations to the Cana- 
dian bonded warehouse system which 
«has been described as a “junior free 
‘port’. 
Probably the best example of. the 
free port at its peak was Britain. 
_ In the days of free trade the whole 
‘island was a free port and the na- 
_tion.did an important business in 
‘trans-shipping and manufacturing 
for other countries. 
Before the war, Hamburg, Ger- 
many, had 150 factories employing 
25,000 workers in its free port zone.

have consumed sufficient soft drinks 
to float an ocean liner almost four 
times the size of the Queen Mary. ‘ 

- Quoting government: statistics, a 
leading Montreal beverage manufac- 
turer claimed in an interview at 
Montreal that theré was an increase 
of 86 per cent, in the. consumption of 
carbonated drinks in Canada between 
19385 and 1941. “Because of the 
sugar rationing, the 1942 consump- 
tion dropped somewhat. Neverthe- 
less, figures for that year show 58,- 
278,974 gallons of pop valued at $36,- 
646,385 were sucked through straws 
by thirsty Canadians—a volume al- 
most four times the displacement of 
the Queen Mary.” 

To determine the fundamental rea- 
son for the increasing aoagen Ys 6 of 
soft drinks, one must go back to 
the ancient days of European history 
when the first mineral spring became 
a meeting place for the ailing. As 
additional springs were discovered 
hundreds of. lavish health resorts, or 
spas, were established, many being 
famous to this day. In the United 
States some 10,000 such springs have 
been located. Several are known in 
Canada. : 

Fantastic claims regarding the 
curative qualities of their waters 
were made by spa promoters. Some 
guaranteed complete cures for ulcers, 
dysentry, gout and rheumatism. At 
other resorts it was claimed one 
could get rid of jaundice, neuralgia, 
diabetes, anemia, Somewhere on the 
continent there was a special spa to 
cure every known disease. 

In the eighteenth century chemists 
undertook to analyse mineral water. 
They discovered one of the sour 
liquids was merely a solution of .ordi- 
nary water and carbon dioxide. In 
1772° Joseph Priestley, famous Bri- 
tish chemist and physicist, devised a 
method of making minéral water in a 
laboratory by. aerating water with 
carbon dioxide by compression, 
Eighteen years later the manufacture 
of carbonated water was launched in 
Geneva, Switzerland. Soon it was 
being\made in England, 

In the United States, in 1807,. Dr. 
Philip. Physick induced a chemist to 
prepare a carbonated drink mixed 
with fruit juices as a medicine for 
some of_his patients. This was the 
birth of the soft drink industry in 
North . America. Soda. fountains 
sprang up in numerous American 
cities and immediately proved popu- 
lar. People still considered charged 
water in terms of medicine rather 
than refreshment, which is probably 
why soda fountains are found-in most: 
drug stores today.. — } 

The first soft drink bottle was 
cylindical in shape with a rubber 
gasket at the top of the neck and a 
glass marble inside. When the vessél 
was filled with carbonated water the 
pressure of the gas from the inside 
forced the glass ball against the gas- 
ket and sealed the contents, we 

The original opener was a wooden 
plug with a disc top. To open the 
bottle the plug was inserted’ in the 
neck and struck with the fist. The 
sudden escape of gas resulted in a 
distinct “pop”, which is how the 
name of “pop bottle” originated. The 
present type of bottle cap, or “crown” 
as the trade knows it, came into use 
in 1880.

Sound Advice 


Public Is Urged To Save Money For 
Future Use 
The Bank of Montreal is putting 
across Canada a series of advertise- 
ments, directly. addressed to the 
average individual earner. “Save 
yourself and you save Canada” is the 
substance of the timely admonition, 
which is stressed on five counts: 
Hold on to your Victory Bonds. 
Buy only those goods which are 
in fair. supply and save your money 
for the day when goods now in short 
supply will be really available. 
Avoid black market purchases, 
Keep up your insurance. 
° Build-up: your ‘savings’ account... 
“Save yourself and you save Can- 
ada” is not the council of ‘despair. 
Nor is it one of futility. It is far 


better to have such advice now effec-| ; 


tive than to envisage the time when 
someone will cry out “Sauve qui 
peut”, everybody for himself, 

The Bank of Montreal. counsels 
thrift, frugality and a little caré 
and foresight. Such counsel can 
never be out of date or/obsolete. The 
uncertainties which maye lie ahead 
will cause no fear for those who take 
the advice, seriously.—St. Catharines

“No, they don’t,” she agreed, “But

‘Made A Difference . 


Comma Dropped When Gray’s Elegy 
Was Printed Changed Meaning 
It is strange that Thomas Gray's 
solemn Elegy Written in a Countr 
Churchyard should begin with _ the 
jingling line: : , 
The curfew tolls the knell 
“of parting day. 

' As a matter of fact, most of us 
may recall occasions when we or 
| others have jingled through it, quite 

satirically. ~But that important 
opening line of the great elegy would 
not have been incongruously jingled 
through 200 years if an anonymous 
proofreader in 1750 had not missed 
the comma which appeared in Gray's 
copy and which was somehow drop- 
ped in the process of printing. If 
one re-reads the line with the com- 
‘main its proper place, one sees at 
once the literary injustice inflicted by 
the casual and distant error:

ing stock as in 1930 only 3,017 pure- 
bred cattle valued at $602,689 were 
exported. Shipments of dairy cattle

LEISURELY WEEK-ENDING 

Are you a slave to-week-ends? Do 
you stay in the kitchen w your 
husband and the children aré’off to 
the golf course, the playground or on 
a hike? Careful planning can put 
you on a five-day working week. 

A Saturday night standby, baked 
beans, fills the bill for a quick and 
easy meal. Serve them with bran 
brown bread and a green salad, and 
you have a nourishing meal ready for 
the table in practically no time at all. 

Two meals on Sunday can easily 
do duty for three on week days, If 
the members of your family are late 
risers they probably will be clumor- 
ing for a substantial breakfast, Make 
it “brunch” and forget about lunch- 
eon altogether. Try these menus as 
a starter on the road to happy week- 
ending!

sents 11 nations. 

“Our population is only 11 persons 
to the square mile and the land un- 
der cultivation amounts to only 25 
per cent, of the province’s area,” 
said Mr, Kennedy. “What we need 
here is more people.” ‘ 

More than a score of pulp and 
paper companies in Northern Ontario 
were in constant operation but they, 
had only scratched. the fringe of mil- 
lions of acres of standing timber. 

“One company (Abitibi) is work- 
ing in a circle which will take it 20 
years to complete and by that time 
there will be new growth ready for 
cutting,” said Mr, Kennedy. “I've 
flown over areas which I doubt will 
ever see the_imprint of man for years 
to come.”
